   For individuals, maintaining a balance between your work and personal life means identifying what's important to you and acting on it, says Sheila Campbell, founder and president of Wild Blue Yonder, a Washington, DC-based consulting and training firm. "For some of us, it means acknowledging that we love work and actually want to work long hours,and not feeling bad about it. For others, it means taking care of ourselves, not just our clients."
   
   And finding balance isn't a destination; it's a journey. "The truth is, what you want in the realm of work/life balance changes over time," Campbell says.
   ...
   If you're partway through a project before you realize it's a bad fit, finish the job and fire the client, advises Campbell. "Often, we take on clients because we think it will be good for cash flow, then realize that, because of their demands, we'll never make money on the project," she says.
   ...
   Campbell says she learned a simple time-management technique that has literally changed her life. "Whatever task you need to do," she says, "Chop it into very small pieces." Many tasks seem overwhelming simply because you know you'll never get the uninterrupted stretch of time you need to complete them. Realistically, we get 30-minute chunks of time between interruptions, she explains.
